AI Audit and Risk Assessment

Identify vulnerabilities, assess security posture, and mitigate risks in your AI systems with comprehensive audits from model training through production deployment.

Why AI Security Audits Are Critical

78% of AI Systems Have Critical Vulnerabilities

Recent studies show that the majority of production AI systems contain at least one critical security vulnerability. Without regular audits, organizations remain unaware of data poisoning risks, model extraction vulnerabilities, adversarial attack surfaces, and compliance gaps until a breach occurs.

Security Vulnerabilities

Uncover hidden attack vectors in data pipelines, model architectures, APIs, and deployment infrastructure before attackers exploit them.

Compliance Gaps

Identify areas of non-compliance with GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2, and emerging AI regulations before costly audits or penalties.

Risk Prioritization

Get actionable risk assessments with severity ratings and remediation roadmaps prioritized by business impact.

Our Comprehensive Audit Methodology

1

Discovery & Scoping

We begin with comprehensive discovery to understand your AI landscape and define audit scope:

  • Inventory all AI systems, models, and data pipelines in production and development
  • Map data flows from collection through training to inference and storage
  • Document infrastructure architecture, access controls, and deployment environments
  • Identify compliance requirements based on industry, geography, and data types
  • Define audit objectives, success criteria, and risk tolerance thresholds
2

Technical Security Assessment

Deep technical analysis of your AI systems for security vulnerabilities and weaknesses:

  • Data Security: Encryption, access controls, data provenance, and privacy protection mechanisms
  • Model Security: Protection against extraction, poisoning, and adversarial attacks
  • Infrastructure Security: Cloud configurations, container security, network segmentation
  • API Security: Authentication, authorization, rate limiting, and input validation
  • Supply Chain: Third-party dependencies, pre-trained models, and external data sources
3

Adversarial & Penetration Testing

Active security testing simulating real-world attack scenarios:

  • White-box and black-box adversarial attack generation and testing
  • Model extraction attempts using query-based and transfer-based methods
  • Data poisoning simulations during training and retraining phases
  • API abuse testing for authentication bypass and privilege escalation
  • Backdoor detection in pre-trained models and transfer learning scenarios
4

Compliance & Governance Review

Evaluate compliance with regulatory requirements and industry standards:

  • GDPR compliance for data processing, consent management, and right to explanation
  • HIPAA requirements for PHI protection in healthcare AI applications
  • SOC 2 controls for security, availability, and confidentiality of AI services
  • EU AI Act requirements for high-risk system classification and documentation
  • Bias, fairness, and ethical AI guidelines assessment across protected attributes
5

Reporting & Remediation Planning

Deliver actionable findings with clear prioritization and implementation guidance:

  • Executive summary with risk overview and business impact assessment
  • Detailed technical findings with severity ratings (Critical, High, Medium, Low)
  • Remediation recommendations with implementation steps and effort estimates
  • Risk-based prioritization roadmap with quick wins and long-term initiatives
  • Follow-up validation testing to verify remediation effectiveness

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does an AI security audit take?

Audit duration depends on scope and complexity. A focused audit of a single AI system typically takes 2-3 weeks (discovery, testing, and reporting). Comprehensive audits covering multiple models, full ML pipelines, and compliance frameworks range from 4-8 weeks. We provide a detailed timeline after initial scoping. Express audits (1 week) are available for specific security concerns or pre-deployment validation.

Will the audit disrupt our production systems?

We design audits to minimize operational impact. Most testing occurs in staging environments or uses read-only access to production. When production testing is necessary (API security, monitoring), we coordinate during low-traffic windows and implement rate limiting. Our methodology prioritizes non-invasive assessment techniques, with any potentially disruptive tests requiring explicit approval and scheduling.

What makes AI audits different from traditional security audits?

AI audits address unique attack surfaces absent in traditional systems: adversarial attacks on model inference, data poisoning in training pipelines, model extraction through API queries, bias and fairness concerns with regulatory implications, and ML-specific compliance requirements (EU AI Act, algorithmic accountability). We combine traditional infrastructure security assessment with specialized AI/ML security expertise, including adversarial testing, model robustness evaluation, and data lineage analysis.

Do you provide remediation services or just identify issues?

We offer both audit and remediation services. Our standard audit includes detailed remediation recommendations with implementation guidance. For clients who want hands-on support, we provide optional remediation implementation services including security control deployment, code fixes and architectural changes, compliance framework implementation, and security monitoring setup. We can also train your team on secure AI development practices to prevent future vulnerabilities.

How often should we conduct AI security audits?

We recommend annual comprehensive audits as a baseline, with additional audits triggered by significant changes: deployment of new high-risk AI systems, major model updates or retraining, infrastructure migrations or architectural changes, regulatory requirement changes, or after security incidents. For high-risk applications (healthcare, finance, autonomous systems), quarterly focused audits provide better continuous assurance. We also offer continuous security monitoring services between formal audits.
